Vintage Colour Guide to Compton Acres, Poole


Very much in the style and design of the Pitkin Pictorial range this appears to be an independently published official guide to the gardens of Compton Acres in Poole, Dorset. Judging by the telephone numbers used in the book and the advert on the back inside cover it would appear to date from the early 1970s, although considerable portions of the text appear more dated. Regardless, it is fully illustrated with many colour and b & w pictures and is in very good condition with only very light wear.
